File descriptor exhaustion - the process has run out of fds. Any i/o could use a file descriptor, whether that's socket to httpd, socket to database or access to a file. Naively, I'd expect lsof to show them - what makes you think it isn't? If you're lucky, you merely need to find the piece of code that's leaking resources and fix it - which I accept isn't always the easiest of jobs. If you're *un*lucky, it's load related and you've just plain run out. I'll leave the UNIX specialists to suggest ways of increasing the number of fds per process, but there have been some recent threads on here. - Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
